Hey, I have one!!! If you have over $150,000 US dollards - cash siting in a bank in your home city just waiting for you to start the next chapter in your life. Keeps me very sane and helps to put up with the stress that comes with living and working here. |

Having money in the bank is no talisman against going nuts. I can you show you lots of rich crazy foreigners in KSA.

Yeah but rich and crazy is better. I think you're then referred to as "eccentric." |

I would take your interest in Scuba Diving as proof positive that you have gone mad. You are going to strap an air bottle on your back and go 100 meters down in the Red Sea ? Crackers !

Accept the inevitable and embrace your nuttiness. |

"embrace your nuttiness"
I like crunchy peanut butter. Does that count for embracing nuttiness? |

I arrived at work at 7am last month to find the entire school - staff, students, clerical staff, ancillary staff laid out in the main yard ....praying for rain.
It's moments like these that exercise my chuckle muscles and keep me plodding onward. |
